Final Report

The Expert Committee was mandated to provide advice and recommendations to the Ontario government regarding whether and to what extent financial planning and the giving of financial advice should be regulated in Ontario and the appropriate scope of such regulation.

The Expert Committee has fulfilled this mandate and now present their Final Report.
